“Honey‚ are you almost ready we’re going to be late.” I yelled at Jamie. “If you don’t come down soon we’re going to miss the best waves.” “Coming‚ sorry I was just waxing my board.” Jamie explained.

The error of perspective I am most guilty of committing is poverty of aspect or as we all refer to as tunnel vision. This week in our weekly discussion board the question was asked about falling into the trap of overgeneralizing a group.
